Who We Are – Caribbean Regional Drug Law Enforcement Training Centre

Operating as a Division of the Ministry of National Security (MNS), REDTRAC is a Post-Secondary, special-focus training institution and a regional training hub established to fulfill the following objectives:

To Strengthen regional law enforcement capabilities
To Reduce dependence on third countries for training
To Increase cost effectiveness in satisfying the training needs
To Improve the relationship between Caribbean drug law enforcement agencies
To Enhance networking, co-operation and the promotion of a common drug law enforcement programme

These, the founding objectives, still hold true today with one very noteworthy development. The anti-narcotics focus of the early years has broadened to encompass Transnational Organized Crime (TOC) and its many facets of sophisticated criminal threats. This is manifested in the development of the REDTRAC curricula over the years to keep pace with evolving crime trends.
